Wagner: Die Walküre

Aug 12, 1980
The second part of Patrice Chérau's epoch-making Bayreuth Ring is a radical re-imagining of Die Walküre, unprecedented in its psychological penetration. This production of " Die Walkure," staged as part of Patrice Chereau's Centenary celebration marking the 100th anniversary of the completion of the "Ring," this lavish performance features Donald McIntyre as Wotan, Peter Hofmann as Siegmund, and Gweneth Jones as Brunnhilde; Pierre Boulez conducts the Orchester Der Bayreuther Festspiel.

Lohengrin

Jan 01, 1972
The nearest Wagner ever got to religion was worshiping himself. Using opulent music he delivers his audience to an easy, pseudo-mystical experience. In this, one of his earlier operas, he is already showing signs of the mastery of the superlative that later would blossom fully together with his egomania.
Lohengrin [The Metropolitan Opera]

L’opéra romantique de Wagner exige des acteurs chanteurs capables de véritablement occuper leur rôle, et c’est exactement ce que nous avons ici. Est-il possible pour un chevalier du Saint Graal d'avoir l'air plus séduisant que Peter Hofmann ? Pas étonnant qu'Elsa (Eva Marton) tombe amoureuse au premier regard. L’héroïne de Marton est innocente, mais c’est aussi une jeune femme passionnée et réelle – ce qui est une bonne chose, car Leonie Rysanek est positivement démente dans le rôle d’Ortrud, la sorcière qui accuse Elsa et Lohengrin d’utiliser la magie. Sous la superbe direction de James Levine, l’orchestre et le chœur sont tout aussi magiques.

Bambi-Verleihung

Nov 16, 2018
The Bambi, often called the Bambi Award and stylised as BAMBI, is a German award presented annually by Hubert Burda Media to recognize excellence in international media and television to personalities in the media, arts, culture, sports, and other fields "with vision and creativity who affected and inspired the German public that year", both domestic and foreign. First held in 1948, it is the oldest media award in Germany. The trophy is named after Felix Salten's book Bambi, A Life in the Woods and its statuettes are in the shape of the novel's titular fawn character. They were originally made of porcelain until 1958, when the organizers switched to using gold, with the casting done by the art casting workshop of Ernst Strassacker in Süßen.
